Arsenal have been interested in signing Alexandre Lacazette all summer (Picture: Getty)Alexandre Lacazette has given Arsenal the green light to sign him after admitting he doesn’t want to refuse offers away from Lyon this summer.

The 25-year-old forward, who scored a hat-trick against Nancy on Sunday, has been heavily linked with a move to the Emirates in recent weeks as Arsene Wenger scours the market for attacking reinforcements.

Lyon announced last month that they had rejected a £29million bid from the Gunners for Lacazette but it appears the France international would accept a transfer to north London if a higher offer comes in for his services.

‘If offers come in that one cannot refuse, I don’t want to refuse them. If not, I am happy at Lyon,’ Lacazette told CANAL+ following Lyon’s 3-0 victory over Nancy.

Get French Football suggest the reporter then asked Lacazette if he had received any offers, to which he responded with a smile: ‘Ask the president.’
